Later, when your famous children are writing books about what an awful parent you were—especially because you
dressed them like a freaking iPod as a baby—don't say we didn't warn you. But if you're not of the belief your child
will ever have a strong public voice with which to decry your questionable parenting, and are of equally fervant
resolve on your love of the iPod, we welcome you to iPod your baby with iPod My Baby. "Because the only thing cuter
than a baby, is an iPodified baby." Whatever the hell that means.
P.S. When Apple cracks down on their domain name too, does that mean they're going to just have to call themselves "My
Baby?"

My goodness, that's sick, and I love my iPod.
HAHAHAHA
i dont have a kid ad i am going to get one...
DUDE! If I had kids, I'd buy a dozen, but I also want to name my kids after Greek letters.
"Eta's a cute little iPod! She sure is..."

AW MANN!
Some poor kid is going to have to learn 10 000 songs.
Fast.
P.S. I also feel sorry for the shuffle kid, being blind and all.
You can't pause a baby. The click wheel should say things like "Burp" "Cry" "Poop" and "Giggle", or other such baby functions.
Yes, but have they included a doggie line too? I would love one for each of my pugs!
I think it is pathetic how some people will flock to and buy anything that has to do with iPods, this is just pathetic. Stop being consumer whores and start thinking for yourselves.
Huey, I think I'll just let YOU do my thinking for me. What's your phone number?
It's dumb and it's cute. Whatever. Not sure why readers are getting their panties in a bunch.
They couldn't have Photoshopped the scroll wheel onto the actual baby picture?
You can also buy another version for babies on Broadway & Lafayette: iPoo
I fear for where the USB/Firewire cord plugs in. Doesn't really matter anyway -- if I had a baby, I'd want the batteries to drain so it could just sleep all day until it grows old and can support me.
Fishes,

This is somehow very disturbing...
Its funny....babies we always want to be quiet and Ipods we always want to listen to.
Oh and Ipods are way cheaper and I like the music on them better...Ill opt for Apple instead of the birthing for now.
Maybe I'm naive, but I don't think Apple is going after people's domain names. I don't know where this rumor started, but I think it's fairly ridiculous. iLounge told me that I should be "careful" about my domain name when I asked them if I could put a post in their free music forum pointing to the site (to which, BTW, they said no... that it would be spam).
The only case I know of is the iTunes.co.uk case. The decision in that case has gotten a lot of play, but mostly by people who don't know the facts. It's true that the original owner registered it 3 years before the iTunes store was opened, but it was two years *after* Apple registered iTunes.com (and only 2 months before they launched the software). There were other things involved as well, like the owners attempts to sell it to Napster, an asking it redirect to Apple competition.
From C-Net:
"Nominet-appointed expert Claire Milne ruled the registration took "unfair advantage" of Apple's trademarks and decided "on the balance of probabilities, I find the domain name... is an abusive registration on the grounds of its use in a manner taking advantage of, and being unfairly detrimental to (Apple)."
I just don't get where this stuff is coming from... Did I miss something?
Funny. But not as funny as this: http://www.bffdesign.com
You did a really good job here! I can confidently say your site is worth visiting. Thanks and good luck!
